And so, another Fremont Fair comes to an end. A good time was had by all in spite of Saturday’s weather and Fremont’s many vendors, bars, restaurants and coffee shops seemed to be pleased with the weekend that was.

My favorite costume? The bioshock-underwater-diver-radioactive-gator-fighting-stilted guys. How bout you?

Halloween is just three weeks away, and this year it’s on a Saturday.  That means lots of trick-or-treating and parties on the horizon so it’s time to start thinking about what costume to wear.  Fremont Studios staged the first Halloween Costume Fashion Show presented by Halloween Express last Sunday.  We took lots of pictures to get your creative juices flowing.

Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, was the special guest of honor. 

The first act of the show featured more than 50 family-friendly ideas.

Even four-legged family members were included.  I’m not sure if devil dogs are supposed to be this cute, though.

This pretty much looks like my refrigerator.

Anyone for a bowl of cereal?

This couple is fresh from Oktoberfest.

This keg actually works!

Elvira met with fans (and signed this tattoo of her) after the show. 

We couldn’t possibly post all of the pictures from the fashion show so we created a Flickr account where you can see more.  

If you’re all dressed up with no place to go, bring your dolled-up self to the BOO Costume Extravaganza at Fremont Studios on Halloween night.  Click here for more information or to buy tickets.  Happy Halloween!
